4.0 out of 5 stars I really like this figure but......., September 6, 2008

This review is from: Batman Dark Knight - The Joker 1:6 Scale Collector Figure (Toy)

Well first of all I have to say that I really like this figure. The clothes are really well done as well as other stuff like the accessories. The price was pretty easy on the pocket (well not now), and it's made very well over-all. But now here comes the gripes. The head sculpt is argued against the Hot Toys version all of the time, with people saying that the DC direct version is more accurate. That may be true due to the fact, DC took a head scan of Leger so it's really hard to beat that. But where they messed up royally is the paint (and the hair sculpt even though I can live with it)that was applied. It is too perfect, and kind of misses the point of being realistic like in the movie. The Hot Toys figure definately has it beat in that department. Well to tell you the truth, the Hot Toys has this figure beat on just about every avenue, BUT, I really think this figure was a huge step for DC direct. It is pure quality! It's just not as upscale as the Hot Toys version. But then again, you're not spending a million dollars on it either, like you do with the Hot Toys. I put the figures side by side and think the Hot Toys version is far superior, but I really dig the DC Direct one alot. If you can ,get them both. But in a realistic world, you might not be able to. This figure rocks really hard and hold tons of potential for repaints to make him look alot cooler. It is worth getting, and I am still very impressed, just not as impressed as with the Hot Toys. IT IS A GREAT TOY, TRUST ME!!!!

This review is from: Batman Dark Knight - The Joker 1:6 Scale Collector Figure (Toy)

It's a cool collectors item if you really like the joker. The one thing that I didn't like was that the collard shirt and tie were not the same colors as the one pictured. The collard shirt is closer to purple than the original blue, and the tie is a a bit different along with the vest being a bit darker. There are no socks, and I don't believe it has the belt either. Basically the Hot toys has the better details that I was looking for.
Overall it's something nice to have and keep over time and worth it if you're looking to have a collectors item..

5.0 out of 5 stars Now THIS is the Joker figure to get - puts the "Movie Masters" one to shame, June 30, 2008

This review is from: Batman Dark Knight - The Joker 1:6 Scale Collector Figure (Toy)

After all the hoopla and price-gouging of the "Movie Masters" Joker figure comes the REAL DEAL, a true collector's item. The "Movie Masters" Joker is cool in its own right, but this 1/6 scale DC Direct Joker blows it out of the water. $89 is no pocket change but then again, one must pay $40-$50 at eBay to get the "Movie Masters" Joker if they can't find it in stores, which is usually the case. And I'm no expert on action figure values, but I don't think one must be to conclude that this DC Direct Joker will end up being a lot more valuable in the future than the "Movie Masters" Joker.

In terms of detail, there is simply no comparison. This Joker even has real shoelaces, and his clothes are of a high-quality fabric. There are many cool "extras" accessories like a gun, knife and playing cards. I just watched the trailer for "The Dark Knight" again and I'm amazed as to how this figure looks exactly like Heath Ledger's Joker.

As tempting as it is to take it out of the box, I'd strongly recommend not doing so and keeping it mint. The accessories can be lost pretty easily as they're so small and besides, a figure of this value is probably better off not opened anyway (it can be very proudly displayed inside the box due to the excellent packaging).

All in all, a great investment for any fan of The Batman franchise/Joker/Heath Ledger.
